The game is crashing but the reason isn't clear.
Hello, I understand you're seeking assistance with your PC setup. You mentioned difficulties while playing Halo Infinite in multiplayer, experiencing crashes after a few matches. It's unclear whether the problem lies with your GPU, the game itself, or some software. I've included a screenshot of the crash event for reference.
Initially, when you installed the Steam launcher, everything worked smoothly. Games like Halo Infinite performed well. However, after about three weeks, crashes became frequent. The screen would freeze, and although your actions were still registered, the game would terminate completely.
You've tried various troubleshooting steps: restarted your PC, closed and reopened the game, verified file integrity, reinstalled the game, removed files from Steam, reset cache multiple times, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, deleted game files, used different download methods, adjusted refresh rates, and even used OBS for streaming. Despite these efforts, the issue persists.
There are a few observations worth noting: during the first week, you played with the case's built-in fans, assuming adequate cooling. Afterward, crashes continued. Once you replaced the fans, the problem persisted. Now, with your current setup, the crashes still occur.
I also recall that earlier, without an exhaust fan, the game would crash after a short play session. After adding the new fans, the crashes still happened. This suggests a potential cooling issue rather than a GPU fault.
Could it be related to another software or driver? I'm curious to know if any recent updates or changes might have affected performance. Also, did you notice any unusual behavior with other games or applications?
Please let me know what else you suspect or any additional details you can share.
Begin your PC in safe mode, execute DDU and delete every GPU driver you've added, then restart it in regular mode. Reinstall the AMD drivers; this should likely resolve the problem. Occasionally, running DDU a few times helped fix issues in the past—especially around 2+ years ago when I used Windows. You might want to give it a try. A useful tool is available at https://www.wagnardsoft.com/content/Down...-DDU-18140. It seems unlikely it's a hardware problem, but some drivers may not handle 300+Hz perfectly. Have you installed an older version of the AMD drivers? Did the issue appear after updating any drivers?
Yeah and it actually helped! I was confused about the error details—like whether other games run at 360fps too or not. Do you receive any warning messages, beeps, or crashes on your PC or in the game? Also, just to clarify, that AMD crash alert is normal for AMD GPUs, right? I didn’t notice an AMD GPU running perfectly fine. Have you turned on screen recording or any performance monitoring tools?
It looks like the game has some restrictions. You mostly have to rely on mods or similar options (unless it has strong anti-cheat measures).
